Surnames and Family Research Forum Archive

I haven't been checking this site lately, so I just got your message about Emanuel dying. I am sorry to hear that. My grandmother who raised me just died as well on the 26th of August. I am really desperate to get info on my family because she was one of the eldest family members who could provide me w/background.

Anyway, I don't know if Emanuel is related to me. I posted a message a couple of years ago trying to get infomation about some Jacksons (Willis and Carrie). I have one living ggg-aunt Eva Moore-Thomas.

She told me her parents were from the Albany, GA area (Willis and Carrie). She said they moved to Waycross, GA sometime in the early 1900's, then onto Jacksonville, FL when she was around 3 yrs old. She was born in 1917. I can't figure out exactly how she's my aunt and my other relatives don't know either. She says she thinks my GGgrandmother (Katie Sanders Wright Daniels who married Steve Daniels) was her aunt. I posted this information years back and VKNelson e-mailed me and told me that Emanuel had infomation b/c those names were very familiar to him. I was in Germany at the time and I never got a chance to speak w/Emanuel. I just got back in touch with VKNelson who advised me that he was in very poor health.
